What are the body parts of a meal-worm?
- 2 cups (500 ml) cornmeal
- 4-cup (1-liter) or larger plastic container (such as empty margarine container)
- slice of potato
- small container of mealworms (available at pet stores)
- paper towel
- pencil
- index card
- desk lamp (optional)
- magnifying lens
- pencil
- paper
NOTE: At the end of this experiment, keep the remaining mealworms for the rest of the experiments in this chapter. You will need to plan what to do with the mealworms when you. are through experimenting. See page iv (dedication page), "Handling Insects and Spiders."
- Prepare housing for the mealworms.
- Pour the cornmeal into the plastic container.
- Place the potato slice and mealworms on the surface of the cornmeal.
- Fold the paper towel in half twice and place it over the potato slice, mealworms, and cornmeal.
- Secure the lid and make 10 to 15 airholes in the lid with the point of the pencil.
- Remove the lid and paper towel. Use the end of the index card to pick up one mealworm.
- Place the card on a flat surface under the lamp or near a window.
- Use the magnifying lens to examine the mealworm. Record your observations by drawing and labeling parts of the mealworm. Include head, antennae, legs, and body segments.
- Repeat steps 2 through 4, using 4 or more mealworms.
- When you are finished, return the mealworms and paper towel to the container. Secure the lid.
The mealworm has a head and a wormlike, segmented body. The head has visible mouthparts and two short antennae. There are three pairs of legs attached to the body, one pair on each of the first three body segments after the head. The body is covered with a firm outer skin.
Mealworms do not have the same identifying features as adult insects (three main body parts and three pairs of legs). This is because mealworms are not adult insects. Mealworms are larvae, which are immature insects that differ greatly from the adult. Mealworms develop into adult insects called darkling beetles.
Mealworms have a well-developed head with mouthparts and short antennae. The first three segments behind the head are the thorax and the remaining segments are the abdomen. These two areas are more clearly separated in the adult stage. The mealworms have six legs, one pair attached to each thorax segment. They also have an exoskeleton.
Mealworms, like all larvae, grow through a series of molts as they develop. During molts, they shed their exoskeletons. The stages between molts are called instars. The last molt of the larval stage (active, feeding stage) results in the formation of a pupa, a non-feeding insect in the resting stage, or pupal stage. Next is the adult stage.
Let's Explore
Observe and compare the instars of the mealworms. Select 10 or more of the smallest mealworms and prepare a housing container as in the experiment. Measure the larvae and observe them with a magnifying lens every 1 to 2 days until the larvae pupate (form a pupa). This may take a few days to weeks, depending on how close your purchased larvae are to the pupal stage. (The pupae are inactive and look like pale mummies.) Science Fair Hint: Make diagrams of the instars and use the drawings as part of a project display. NOTE: Keep the pupae for other experiments.
Show Time!
- How do the bodies of the pupal and larval stages of the darkling beetle compare? Use the magnifying lens to study several pupae from the previous experiment.
- Using a shoe box and a flashlight, test the response of mealworms to light. Cut a hole in one end of the lid of the shoe box. Make the hole slightly smaller than a flashlight's lens. Place 5 to 10 mealworms in the shoe box beneath the hole. Turn the flashlight on and stand it lens down over the hole. Leave the box undisturbed for 1 hour. Then remove the lid and observe the position of the mealworms.
- How do darkling beetle pupae respond to light? Repeat the previous experiment, using 5 or more pupae. Observe the pupae with a magnifying lens before and after placing them under the light. Look for any signs of motion.
Check It Out!
Some larvae have prolegs, which are fleshy legs attached to the abdominal region. Find out more about the body structures of larvae.

Common English Bible (CEB) | New International Version (NIV) |
2 My brothers and sisters, think of the various tests you encounter as occasions for joy. | 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, |
3 After all, you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. | 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. |
4 Let this endurance complete its work so that you may be fully mature, complete, and lacking in nothing. | 4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. |
5 But anyone who needs wisdom should ask God, whose very nature is to give to everyone without a second thought, without keeping score. Wisdom will certainly be given to those who ask. | 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. |
6 Whoever asks shouldn't hesitate. They should ask in faith, without doubting. Whoever doubts is like the surf of the sea, tossed and turned by the wind. | 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. |
7 People like that should never imagine that they will receive anything from the Lord. | 7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; |
8 They are double-minded, unstable in all their ways. | 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. |
9 Brothers and sisters who are poor should find satisfaction in their high status. | 9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. |
10 Those who are wealthy should find satisfaction in their low status, because they will die off like wildflowers. | 10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower. |
11 The sun rises with its scorching heat and dries up the grass so that its flowers fall and its beauty is lost. Just like that, in the midst of their daily lives, the wealthy will waste away. | 11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business. |
12 Those who stand firm during testing are blessed. They are tried and true. They will receive the life God has promised to those who love him as their reward. | 12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. |

So I'm looking around for a good open FPS.
So far the games Stalker really interest me, but I'd like to hear more on the games.
Also, I was wondering if you guys think it stacks up to the new Fallouts (I haven't played either) since those are wildly hyped.
Also, if there are any other open ended FPS games you guys can think of, I'm open to suggestion.

A kind of boring ;-( The dude might be camera conscious or the girl´s not just his type. The lady is a bore, her pussy´s hole might be as big as the black hole. & it´s definitely one of the gayest orgasm moan.
sexy January 6, 2013
He should see a doctor he makes as much noise as she does when his penis ejaculates sperm from it more noise in matter of fact And a womans Orgasm supposed to be more intense and more pleasurable as it is internal not external as a mans is. The woman is good too in bed
Lissy May 20, 2013
idk why so many guys here complain about a guy moaning so loud. I love when a guy is that loud. It gets me SO turned on. It's not just guys who like hearing their girl moan and get pleasure out of it. It lets me know that I did my job well ;) AND it helps me cum, too.

Actually, I must confess that I do enjoy a heated debate from time to time... However that does not include hurling insults at those who disagree with you.
Not every issue is "Black & White" & there are ALWAYS gray areas where even "like minded" folks will strongly disagree.
So...it's OK to turn up the heat.
The veiled personal flaming is not necessary in any debate though. :angryfire
The standard Ultra Left Wing Liberal tactic is to resort to both outwardly blatant and sneaky masked personal attacks whenever they can't win an argument or debate with either logic or common sense.
We should all try to stay above that here.
Agreed. Just as we will be held to a "higher standard" in court, I feel that we should hold ourselves to a higher standard as human beings. It is the responsibility of every armed citizen to conduct himself/herself in a manner that reflects well on the rest of us.Originally Posted by QKShooter

Liberty Over Tyranny Μολὼν λαβέ
I do not violate private property rights if I can help it, but it happens from time to time. My work is posted, so I cannot carry in my plant. My plant also has shop rules against all weapons and firearms. Even if I did, my type of work would make it difficult to carry and not get caught.(Automoblie Assembly)
My pay and benefits are too good to walk away from. I carry in my vehicle to work, lock them away and go to work.
People sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to violence on their behalf.
Screw them....what they dont know wont hurt them, but a crazed former employee or other threat WOULD hurt me. Actually, about 1.5 mos after I started, our bldg was struck by what appeared to be "random" gunfire. A .45ACP Golden Saber went through a window and lodged into a wall about 25 feet away from my workspace. I was carrying at the time....that merely a) vindicated my carrying, and b) made me more careful about walking in front of the windows at night.

As I see it you have two choices. They are, find another job, and find another job. I won't recommend you do something against company policy no matter how stupid the policy is. That is your choice. Your employer has that right to impose stupid policies on their employees, just as you have the right to work elsewhere. I'm sure if you are killed at work because you were unable to defend yourself based on their policies they will say something nice about you in the company paper.

I HATE when that happens!
He asked if I had a gun in the car and I honestly answered:
I couldn't believe he didn't ask the next obvious question....
At the end of the day, each man stands alone, either with his integrity and principles intact, or having been discarded along the way. There's two points to this thought. First, what principles have I adopted as mine and how do I define integrity, and secondly, how everthing ends up. I've spent a lot of time with older people, folks dying, etc. The ones who lived by their principles and kept their integrity generally seem to have more joy and satisfaction in their lives even if they weren't necessarily easy lives. We all have rights but we all agree to limit ours so "we" all can have some degree of liberty. If everyone has absolute liberty/freedom, then no one agrees to be limited by any laws and you end up with anarchy. I don't want that and doubt seriously if anyone I've read on this forum would. The question then is how far I'm willing to be limited by others so we all can have some liberty! I believe the best way for a man to answer that is to look at where limited liberty intersects principles and integrity. Since this is subjective right down to the individual, you can see why this easily becomes a contentious issue. To make it even harder, we often want to preserve our liberty over the legitimate rights of others but have a fit when they would dare do the same. A very exagerated example would be how a Dad is dishonest in carrying a weapon in violation of clearly expressed requirements for his work center (notice I didn't say parking lot, theres actually state laws dealing with those) but expects his son to be totally honest about something the son is hiding in his room in his Dad's house that his dad has expressely forbidden. If I own the company, I have a right to restrict what you do on my private property. If you choose to have your liberty even at the expense of my liberty to set policy for how people act on my land, then we've got a problem that at some level involves integrity and principle. Now if too many people start doing that all at the same time, and if how others view integrity and principles deteriorates in a society, well then, we end up with one huge mess! What made America great was our ability to come together as a repuplic, and as a people, to set some limits on our liberty so that we could have liberty as a nation. It gets deep quick. Unfortunatley, when integrity, truth, etc., becomes too relative, it causes huge problems in society. We won't settle this but the discussion is interesting. I think any one of us reading a this thread might benefit from considering it from this point of view,...if we set aside the guns and defense issues, would we be upset if we were treated the way we'd be treating someone by knowingly violating their rule? I know you can't entirely leave the defense issue out but we might also be ignoring another possible solution. My company has a similar policy and I didnt' become aware of it until I happened to be looking at a work manual years after I started here. When I read the prohibition I stopped carrying at work and did two things. I checked state law and found that in Missouri its legal to carry and leave it in my car in a parking lot. Secondly, I talked to the HR Manager about the policy and I mentioned to him that I sometimes have guns in my car and wanted to be sure there wouldn't be a problem. He appreciated me bringing it up and said it would be no problem. He just asked me to be discreet about it. Now that brings up the issue about how best to secure a weapon in a car. I think that would be a great thread. To the gentleman who started this thread, I'd encourage you to honor your word which you've given "constructively" by continuing to work for the employer with your knowledge of their policy. Then I'd check parking lot laws in your state and I'd find a really good way to secure the gun in my car and I'd even suggest you talk to a boss or HR manager about your concerns over personal safety when traveling to clients homes or even while in them.
I'm not sure if any of this helps or makes sense, but I intend to obey every law concerning my carry unless the law directly violates one of my principles. None of the carry laws I've ever hear even comes close and for me (a preacher) the Bible clearly teaches me to obey the Government (as if it's Him I'm obeying) unless the Government asks me to do something contrary to His commandments. I.e., if they ask me to steal, lie, murder, etc...so you can see where I adopted my principles from.
Good discussion. Now if I could carry at work, I'd probably carry my Kel-Tec P3-AT .380 acp. I have carried it other places in a "Smart Carry" holster and it's VERY concealable and reasonable comfortable. It would be hard for anyone to detect it, even bumping into you as they'd likely be a little embarrassed.
God Bless
Gideon :embarasse
You make alot of good points, Gideon, thanks. I generally don't carry (except in my car) anywhere that disallows it. I say "generally" because I don't do it but might do it if for some reason I had to go somewhere work related where I felt it was necessary to carry my gun. When I go somewhere in my car (off of my employer's premises) I am no longer under their control. If I'm in their car I will adhere to their rules. I almost always go in mine.....
Coimhéad fearg fhear na foighde; Beware the anger of a patient man.
Gideon, A business owner has a legitimate interest in his own property rights.
An employer can dictate how I dress, and can even dictate how much I weigh.
But his property rights do not supersede my right of self defense, NOTHING DOES.
Many businesses prohibit people from carrying lawful weapons because they perceive a higher
risk of being sued from employees shooting people, than from being sued by the families of
employees or customers who get killed while they are denied their right of self defense.
A similar faulty logic applies to the classic places where Lawful concealed weapon holders are prohibited from carrying weapons: at schools, courthouses, and church services....
and what do you know? It is exactly these places where there have been some recent high profile mass murders. The killers in these cases paid no mind to the laws declaring these to be "safe" places, any more than they paid mind to laws against murder. There was no "good guy" in sight with a gun to oppose the killers.. No, let me correct, there WAS a good guy with a gun in Tyler, Texas. He gave his life and thereby prevented the killer from killing his own son.
It is wrong for an employer who bears no burden of protecting my life, to demand that I not take measures to protect it myself. This makes as much sense as preventing construction workers from wearing hard hats, or chemical workers from using masks and haz-mat suits. It is worse than stupid, in my opinion, it is criminal.
It is wrong for a government, which has no real ability, nor responsibility for protecting my life, to prevent me from taking measures to protect my life, myself.
I do not owe alleigance, obediance, or even truthfulness to those who presume to interfere in my own defense of self and family. No more than I would to a government or employer which mandates that I murder or steal on its behalf.
I believe it is a false dichotomy to present gun rights as being a case of "liberties in conflict".
The only conflict is people who mean to defend themselves, and those who mean to deny that right.
That's just how I see it.
Travis is Right On!!

- German Grand Prix - Red Bull preview
'It's always a special crowd to race in front of'
Sebastian Vettel
"I'm looking forward to the German GP, hopefully there will be at least as many people supporting the German drivers as there were in Silverstone last weekend. Hockenheim is only half an hour away from my home town, so I have a lot of friends and family there and it's always a special crowd to race in front of. I've driven on that circuit in different series and it's always been great. The campsites near the new circuit are fun and it's special to meet the fans there. I haven't won the German GP before and of course, I would like to!"

Afternoon. Good Easter, all? Eaten so much chocolate you're sweating Galaxy and pooing Mini Eggs? Excellent. Anyway, the new issue of PSM3 is out on Thursday...
In PSM3 issue 87, you'll be getting a massive hands-on look at Devil May Cry 4 on PS3. It's perhaps the best DMC yet, and certainly the maddest, featuring, as it does, a petrol-powered sword. Whose sword? Why? Buy the mag for more.
Then there's LocoRoco 2, the sequel to PSP's happiest game. Big news, certainly, and we're very excited. Get the mag and you'll see why you should be too. One thing: the Locos don't look quite the way they used to. All will be revealed in the pages of PSM3.
And there's loads more on top of that. Loads of reviews, including Oblivion on PS3 and Ratchet & Clank on PSP, the view from the inside of the PS3 launch, Final Fantasy XII's best bits, Trevor McDonald on fire, another packed DVD, the inside report from the recent Game Developers Conference in San Francisco and a supplement entitled 'The 20 Games That Will Shape The Future Of PS3'. That's 20 games that will make you very, very glad indeed if you've bought a PlayStation 3.
And there's loads more besides, of course. You shouldn't be without it, so get down to the shops on Thursday. You know it makes sense.

I grew candy cane/candy stripe zinnias from purchased seed last year and saved all the seeds and from a huge bed I made for them this year only a few have grown, any ideas? I'm pretty disappointed :( |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by ken_adrian MI z5 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 13, 14 at 20:24
did you check if they were sterile.. many very fancy types are ... and i do not believe.. they come true from seed.. even if they werent.. better go buy some new ones.. and sow them fast ... plenty of time left ken |
I sowed a packet of 100 candy stripe zinnia seeds, and have only 5 plants from that packet... they haven't bloomed yet but the buds don't even look candy striped. :( They look plain red. |
Candy Stripe is not a foo foo hybrid, but considered an heirloom plant. It can interbreed with other zinnias if exposed, but the second generation of seed should present a good number of Candy Stripe zinnia. Each generation after will decline in those particular characteristics if other zinnia's genetics come into play. But we don't know a thing about your seed collecting, storing, and planting. Lots and lots of things can go wrong. Desirai, you can't tell about the pattern and color of this zinnia from the buds. |
thanks everyone so far for the input. rhizo_1- Yes they were in a bed with other zinnias so interbreeding is a possibility. I let the seed heads dry on the plants so i didn't collect them too early or anything, I stored them in plastic sandwich bags in my basement inside of a small plastic storage bin i have for all my seeds and supplies. I planted them in a nice 6'x8' raised bed with good soil and drainage and planted the seeds roughly 1/4-1/2 inch deep, i loaded this whole bed up with seeds collected from last years plants which were grown from the purchased seeds which grew extremely well and all true candy striped. Wanted to make this bed a cutting area for my wife and almost nothing germinated.I even added more seeds in after next to nothing happening after a month of the first seeding. Really stumped as to what went wrong, I just made a new temp bed to sow some more to test more of the seeds so we'll see what happens with those. Just thought i'd ask if there was any known history of people having trouble growing collected seeds from this variety, again appreciate the input, thanks, jason |
Hi Jason, It may be that the seeds you saved are not viable because they were not pollinated. Do you remember if you had a lot of bees on your candy cane/candy stripe zinnias last year? A 6' x 8' bed is not very large. Assuming you want your zinnia plants to be about a foot apart, that would require a total of only 6 x 8 = 48 viable seeds. Each seed could be at the center of its own square foot. You could get that many zinnia seeds in a single packet. You could avoid the uncertainty of whether your saved seeds were viable or not by simply buying another packet of the same seeds. "I let the seed heads dry on the plants so i didn't collect them too early or anything," I am a zinnia hobbyist and I breed my own zinnia hybrids, so I do a lot of zinnia seed saving, shucking, and packaging. I use Snack sized Ziploc bags and I enclose a 3x5 card containing specific information about the seeds in that bag. A 3x5 card fits nicely in a Snack sized bag. It sounds like you may have done something similar. However, I usually save my seeds as green seeds and dry them for a week or more before packaging them in the Ziplocs. The green seed technique has several advantages. You minimize the risk of seed eating birds and you avoid the risk of rains causing water damage in dead brown zinnia seed heads. Brown zinnia seeds can get wet enough in the flower head to cause them to sprout in the head, Any pre-sprouted brown seeds won't grow. It's worth while to learn to successfully save and grow your own zinnia seeds. You might find a special zinnia that you would want to grow as your very own zinnia variety. But for the time being, with just a 6 x 8 raised bed, buying another packet of seed is doable. Incidentally, have you considered the Peppermint strain of zinnias? It has a wider color range than the Candy Cane/Candy Stripe zinnias. ZM |
Hi again Jason, Those surprise striped zinnias look significantly different from the commercial striped varieties. Incidentally, you can see a larger version of that picture when you click on that picture. When the larger picture opens in its own window, you can hit the F11 key to hide that window's heading, which makes the entire window available to the picture. When you are finished viewing the picture, you can hit the F11 key again to reveal the window's heading, making it convenient to close the window so that you will be back here. The larger pictures show considerably more detail than the smaller 550-pixels-wide pictures that we are limited to here in these GardenWeb forums. |
Awesome, ZM! What a great zinnia! I was hoping that you'd jump in to help Jason. |
Thank you zenman, thats a great looking zin! I have many more beds and gardens around my property other than the one i mentioned with just the saved candy seeds. So I do have much more of an "operation" going on besides the single bed otherwise yes buying one packet of new seeds would solve my problem. I have the candy seeds and many other zinnia varieties all over my property, I enjoy growing from seed and try to grow and collect seed as much as I can thats why this issue was very upsetting for me, I was hoping to make the one dedicated bed with the saved candy seeds just a cutting area. I actually did purchase both peppermint and candy stripe last year, I thought they were the same just called one or the other. From the pictures they look like the same strain to me, glad to know now that there is a difference! I have these seeds and gardens at my "project" property that i'm only at and working on occasionally, not a full time residence yet, but now that you mention it i didn't notice a whole lot of bee activity when i was there, so that very well could be the problem. Thanks very much for your help & suggestions, its much appreciated, i'd love to be just like you and grow/breed some interesting new zinnias! Good luck with yours this year! |
Hi Jason, |
This post was edited by zenman on Mon, Jun 16, 14 at 15:24
Hi ZM, thanks very much for taking the time to share that information, I will definitely be pollinating a bunch myself this year! We can't be having this disapointment of seeds not growing!! If you could just clarify for me on picking the green seeds, are those ready as soon as the bloom is in full bloom or do you wait for it to fade? Thanks again |
Hi Jason, The "bad" green seeds are the ones which are empty and do not contain a viable embryo. If you want really quick turnaround getting a next generation seedling from a green seed, you can actually remove the embryo and plant embryos instead of seeds. I planted two flats of embryos indoors last Fall in order to get a quick start on my indoor zinnia growing project. |
Thanks again ZM, I appreciate you taking the time to explain in great detail |

Team Lee. I wish we could talk to the firees instead and just pretend that this stupid final task never even happened because it's so boring. Which the show basically does, but we still have to watch this crap happen. VIP reception at Chelsea Piers, people milling about, drinking champagne and white wine, Pepi and Lee stressing about something that's not really very clear. Trump calls Lee and Lee answers the phone calling him "Buddy." Cobra. "Am I going to be impressed in ten minutes?" Lee says that he will, but that he can't fuck around or be lame because the thing starts at 5 PM. Ignoring the fact that Lee just questioned his punctuality, Trump flips the script and says that Lee better have his shit together because he's gotta leave and go to the other event as well. Lee yells at all the VIPs that they have to go get ready and to grab a gift bag, and Lenny makes the essential contribution of telling them harshly to "Play good." When Trump arrives, Lee is doing something or another and then gets lost in the building, so that Trump basically has to do a Priestly and wander around by himself. When Lee finally finds Trump, Trump is royally pissed and bitches him out. Just like every year. Lee takes him to sit in the risers with Pontiac cutie, and his nod to kissing Trump ass is to hand him a Diet Coke. In a can.
This is farce. There's a red carpet across the middle of the ice, and Lee introduces the players, and then the dad from that awful sitcom about the two gay dads yells about some stuff, and Lee tells us about how you have to "talk about the foundation" so it'll "make them happy." Lee doesn't understand the whole "charity" thing, I think. Hockey is played. Hockey equals lots and lots of socks and hitting. Both blood and vomit bounce if it's cold enough. That's all I know about hockey.
Team Sean. A panda suit person welcomes people to the event. Pontiac cutie worries about not having enough signage and George -- without even thinking about it -- glad-hands the guy about how "You don't need much! They sell themselves!" I wish that George and Lee would yell at each other in a Chinese restaurant about how they each think the other person's life is perfect, and then they would switch bodies, and then Lee could learn a thing or two. George is so awesome. Andrea and Sean get their last minute stuff together, and she bids him good luck sweetly. Andrea sounds pretty good telling people about the cars, and sounds pretty knowledgeable, even though she never says anything about engines or performance and just about the rims and stuff you can see with your eyeballs. Sean sneaks off and goes shopping for hair gel in the Taj Mall. This is not a lie, this is totally the truth. "It's for good luck," he says more than once, and then we watch him spraying his hair down. Fuckface. This is exactly what I'm talking about: he's going to win, but it won't mean anything, because he's winning by sucking less. You couldn't edit it in such a way that we wouldn't be in a quandary of not wanting to root for Lee v. not wanting Sean to win? That's not entertainment, that's a punishment.

Japan has promised to abide by the ruling of the International Court of justice that "scientific" whaling is not permitted . Australia took japan to court over its ships whaling in our waters.....who said that the ICJ was a paper tiger? This is great news. |
Here is a link that might be useful: the whales are pretty happy about this
Follow-Up Postings:
This really is great news! I hope that Japan's fishing industries will abide by this ruling and if not, severe consequences can be brought to bear against those in Japan who would be responsible for ignoring the ruling. Congratulations for a job well done, Australia. |

They were killing whales in the Southern Ocean Whale SANCTUARY! The bad news that I have just read is that they plan to continue whaling in the northern pacific "as that was not part of the ruling" so basically a tecnicality. It is up to countries a bit more north that Australia to do the same now. |
Here is a link that might be useful: the battle is won but not the war
Well, it's still a victory for Australia--and let's hope that the idea will spread to the northern pacific areas also. Why is whaling so important to Japan? Kate |
- Posted by youngquinn VIC Aust (My Page) on Mon, Mar 31, 14 at 20:53
Its a commercial thing Kate, they like to eat whalemeat...but to get around the international restrictions on hunting endangered whales said it was for "scientific research" of course after they had "researched" the meat they sold it at huge profit. |
I agree with you YQ, I know of no one who would not support what Australia and the ICJ accomplished. Though for many it is a thorn in the side but celebrities in this country have brought attention to this issue, I wish that the countries of North America would join in as vocally and with effort as did Australia. What with the stuff floating our way, the radiation ruins of the fish in our waters, I would think Japan, out of some small sense of reparation, would be willing to sign agreements and more willing to monitor its fishing industry. Its a very good time to apply that pressure to its Govt. from all countries - especially those most affected. I would think. Id use the phrase "strike while the iron is hot" but that would probably be in bad taste so I wont. |
It might be time to check the whales to see how much radiation they have absorbed. Congratulations, Australia. Good job. |
Well, an extra helping of krill all around does seem in order! |

Louella loves it and loves you! |
I would agree it's a good thing... haven't a few whales been hunted to the point of near extinction? I would think we need them to maintain the health of our oceans, or as a sign of health... |

Other advantages and characteristics of the invention will appear from the description which Will now be given with reference to the annexed drawings which represent diagrammatically and simply by way of example a constructional form of an improved fruit pressing apparatus embodying my invention. v In the drawings: Fig. 1 is a view of the apparatus in longitudinal section, Fig. 2 is a cross sectional view of the same through the center of the pressing device, and, Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same. In the constructional example shown, the apparatus comprises a lower element made by moulding or stamping any suitable material so as to form a receptacle 50 having a solid bottom, said receptacle having preferably a circular outline and being provided with a handle 5I extending therefrom, and an upper element likewise made by moulding or stamping any suitable material so as to form a plate 52 having another handle 53 vextending therefrom. The receptacle 50 is preferably formed with a spout. 'Ihe upper element and the lower element are articulately connected to each other by means of a hinge or analogous device 54 so that in the closed position represented in Fig. 1 the plate 52 is directly above the receptacle 50. The two handles 5I and 52 can be locked, in the closed position, in relation to each other, by means of a'V catch device 55 carried by one of the hand1es'5l, which is actuated by a spring 55 and engages Withtheupper edge of a slot 51 in the other handle 53. j The upper element acts on4 the fruit' to be pressed by means of a pressing plate 58, which is integral with a stem 59 slidably mounted within a vertical support 60 xed to or integral with the plate 52. Itis to be noted that the diameter of the plate 58 isY slightly less than ,the internal diameter of the receptacle so as to form therewith'an annular` lter. Y The rod 59 is under the actionfof a spring 5l placed in the interior of the support 60 and bearing on the one hand against the upper face of a retaining vcap 59 Vfastened onto the upper end of the said stem 59V and on the other hand against the lower face' of a plate 62 slidably mounted within support 60. A cam 63, mounted soas to be capable of turning about a pivot 64 carried bytheup'per'end'of the support 60 bears against the upper face of plate 62. The cam 63'is provided with a lever 65 capable of imparting to the 'cam 63 a rotary movement of the orderof 180;` The rotation of the -lever 65 is made possible byY providing at the upper end of the support 60v two diametrically opposite slots 56 and El. The device is operated as follows: Y The two elements50, 52 being spreadV apart so that thev pressing plate 58 clears receptacle 50. One half of the fruit to be pressed, such for example, as 58, is placed within the latter. The device is then closed by forcing the two handles 5l and 53 towards each other. The half fruit contained within receptacle 5l] is thus pressed by the plate 58 and the juice that is expressed therefrom rises in the receptacle 50 above the said plate 58. As soon as the two handles have been brought together and locked, a further squeezing of the fruit is produced by rotating the cam 63 about The cam acts on the plate 58 through the action of spring BI. gether they eens-Hints@ lter what i.S.`.freed-ir9m s Obstruction .,eah-itiraethe tw@ elements .of the device are moved apart.

It feels like we just got done with CES, but Mobile World Congress is looming heavy on the horizon. As usual, Samsung will be there with bells on, but it will shun the show floor in favor of a dedicated Unpacked event. The first Unpacked venue of the year has been set for Monday, February 24th, according to Samsung Tomorrow. It will start at 8:00 PM local time (2:00 PM Eastern), putting it right at the end of the show's first day.
Are you stoked for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3? It's one of the most official unannounced products around, and information surrounding the massive handset continues to leak. It looks like we may now be able to pin down a launch date for the device, which Samsung is set to unveil early next month at its "Unpacked" event on September 4th. If the leak posted over at Engadget is to be trusted, the device should ship on September 16th, just a couple weeks after it's revealed.

Friday afternoon, I decided to swallow my pride and confess to Robert just how horribly the intervention story was going.
I nervously sent him an email telling him I needed to talk when he had a minute. Almost immediately, he pokedhis head out of the office and called me in. I ignored Ashley's penetrating glare and went in.
"Here's the thing," I said, trying not to notice that he'd skipped the khakis that day and was sporting a HOT pair of jeans. "I can't find a family to do an intervention with."
"Because in order to air it, we have to get everyone to sign a release form. That includes the person who is the subject of the intervention, and obviously, we can't ask them to sign a release form when they dont know they're about to be ambushed."
"Can't we tape it and then ask them to sign off after?"
"Nope, checked with legal."
Robert leaned forward and assumed the Robert Extreme Intensity Pose while he thought.
"Then we'll get actors."
I felt my journalistic integrity slipping away. Then I had an idea.
"What if we get a family that has already gone through it to stage a reenactment?"
"Brilliant! Set it up!"
Only I didn't have time to set it up, because I had a show to do. Luckily, we have some very eager interns right now. They got to work, and so did I.
Speaking of eager interns, let me tell you about my email from last night...
To: K.
From: Derrick
Subject: Memories
Hey Beautiful,
I had a dream about you the other night. I won't give you all the graphic details (and it was graphic), but I will tell you it was the most fun I've had in weeks. Months even. How are you?
D, the guy I dubbed "Shady Boy" for reasons I'll get to in a second, interned at the station with Brad and me back in college. He washilarious and hot (a deadly combo for me) but seriously stunted in the emotional department. In what I now consider a rare moment of healthy decision making, I decided to flirt outrageously with him but never date or hook up with him. And I even stuck to it! After school, he moved to L.A. and I get a ridiculous email like the one above once or twice a year. We'll send silly emails back and forth for a week or two, and then he'll disappear. (Hence the nickname "Shady Boy.") I giggled the entire time I composed my response. :-P
To: Derrick
From: K
Subject: re: Memories
Weeks? That's a bit of an insult. Try years next time, it will make me feel like you're really longing for me. I'm good, but I'd be better if a certain hotshot L.A. filmmaker were here to amuse me.
Who needs d8ting when yuo have email flirting? Not me. I am taking a little boy break. I certainly need one after the past week.

That is pretty awesome! where did you get it or did you make it yourself? upon further investigation i noticed from the firing line that you are the inventor of this gun and also notice that you modified this one from a pistol! that sir is one awesome piece you have there. Any chance that you will start your company up again and restart production? i would love to have one of these!!! even just the pistol not the carbine!!!

WOW!! Very nice sir. Did you make it using a Medusa, or just using the design? Now my Medusa's feelin' lonely...... Very proud (lucky) Medusa owner here, i think its the neatest gun ever! So far .380 is my favorite to shoot. you said you shot .30 carbine, can the pistol shoot this as well? I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors!
If anyone has a Medusa that they feel they would be willing to let go of please let me know! I will definatly be looking for one of these untill i find one i can buy.
Hey jw, that is a neat rifle.

My great-aunt's genealogist insisted there was a link but left no evidence to prove it. The earliest Peays we can identify are two gentlemen in Rockingham County, North Carolina in the 1760s - George and Austin. Unfortunately, every third Peay male was named George.

I purchased this mattress for my child's trundle bed. The bed was purchased from a higher-end kids furniture store(rhymes with ***) and the trundle mattress they sell is $200(price before the $30 service fee and hefty shipping charge)! This was a great alternative and fits perfectly(most trundle mattresses are 6 inch thick and this specific trundle called for a 5 inch or thinner mattress which was very hard to find!) Firm, yet soft and great quality-seems as though it will last a long time.
I needed to replace the mattress on my small sofa bed and this fit the bill perfectly. It was a little wide but no problem when it came to closing the bed.
much better than one on bed tight fit. I would recommend it for the price.
I'm happy with this purchase and i bought this for my sofa bed but i'm using it as a mattress bed and its very comfortable to sleep on.
We were getting ready to spend over $150 on a foam mattress from **** but found this one and decided to give it a try on our new daybed (we ended up purchasing two). The mattresses did not have any odors after taking them out of the plastic and were in perfect condition! Very comfortable and such a great value!!
This mattress turned my very uncomfortable sleeper into a VERY COMFORTABLE BED for our 6'3" grandson. Highly recommend.
Very nice, makes the sleeper sofa much better to sleep on.
This is the mattress on the top bunk of my sons bunk bed and it is fabulous!
Seems to be comfortable. Our 5 year old son sleeps on it and hasn't complained but he's 5 and a boy so pickiness of sleep accommodations isn't something we're dealing with (thank goodness). But he sleeps through the night and never complains of aches so I take that as a good sign. I've been on it and it's comfortable to me. The most important thing is that there is not chemical smell. We bought a king version of this and 2 months later, we're still dealing with odor. Maybe we just lucked out with this one. It's also a little short. There is about 3-4 inches gap at the foot of his bed which is just a little annoying.
